CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS

This application is a continuation of International Application No. PCT/CN2010/077761, filed on Oct. 15, 2010, which claims priority to Chinese Patent Application No. 200910110793.1, filed on Oct. 15, 2009, both of which are hereby incorporated by reference in their entireties.

FIELD OF THE INVENTION

The present invention relates to the field of communications, and in particular, to a method and an apparatus for establishing a cell reselection list.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

In a GERAN network, a measurement function and a reselection function of a cell totally relate to the following lists.

1) Broadcast Control Channel Allocation List (Broadcast Control Channel Allocation List, BA List)

Generally, the BA list is merely used for functions of measuring a GERAN cell, reporting the measurement, and cell reselection, and the BA list includes a frequency and frequency index information of a GERAN neighbour cell. The BA list is constructed by an SI2/SI2bis/SI2ter message or an SI5/SI5bis/SI5ter message, or is constructed by PSI3 and PSI3bis when a packet broadcast control channel (Packet Broadcast Control Channel, PBCCH) exists.

2) GSM Neighbour Cell List (GSM Neighbour Cell List, GSM NCL)

Generally, The GSM NCL is also merely used for the functions of measuring a GERAN cell, reporting the measurement, and cell reselection. The GSM NCL includes a frequency of a GERAN neighbour cell, a base transceiver station identity code (Base transceiver station Identity Code, BSIC) of a GERAN neighbour cell, and cell index information of a GERAN neighbour cell. The GSM NCL is constructed by the BA list and SI2quater or by the BA list and a Measurement Information message, or is constructed by PSI3 and PSI3bis when the PBCCH exists, and at this time, the GSM NCL is the same as the BA list.

3) 3G Neighbour Cell LIST (3G Neighbour Cell List, 3G NCL)

Generally, the 3G NCL is used to measure a 3G neighbour cell and report the measurement, and the list includes a frequency of the 3G neighbour cell, scrambling of the 3G neighbour cell, a bandwidth of the 3G neighbour cell, and index information of a 3G cell. The 3G Neighbour Cell list is constructed by an SI2quater message when the PBCCH does not exist, or is constructed by a PI3quater message when the PBCCH exists. The 3G NCL may be modified by a packet measurement order (Packet Measurement Order, PMO) message or a packet cell change order (Packet Cell Change Order, PCCO) message.

4) 3G Cell Reselection List/GPRS 3G Cell Reselection List (3G Cell Reselection List/GPRS 3G Cell Reselection List)

The 3G Cell Reselection List/GPRS 3G Cell Reselection List is used for reselection of a 3G neighbour cell, and the list includes a frequency of a 3G cell, scrambling information of the 3G cell and bandwidth information of the 3G cell, or may further include only frequency information other than the foregoing specific cell information. Since in a 3G network, many different cells exist in the same frequency, and the different cells are distinguished according to parameters such as scrambling and a bandwidth, in the case that only the frequency information is given, when cell reselection is performed, any cell in the frequency may be selected. The 3G Cell Reselection list is constructed by the SI2quater message and the SI2ter message. The GPRS 3G Cell Reselection list is constructed by the SI2quater message and the SI2ter message when the PBCCH does not exist, or is constructed by the PSI3quater message when the PBCCH exists.

5) Neighbour Cell List (Neighbour Cell List, NCL)

The NCL is generally used in an enhancement-type measurement report, and is used to measure and report all neighbour cells (including the GERAN cell and the 3G cell), and the list includes a frequency and BSIC information of the GERAN cell, a frequency, scrambling and a bandwidth of the 3G cell, and index information of each cell. The NCL is generally formed through a series connection of the GSM NCL and the 3G NCL.

6) E-UTRAN Neighbour Cell List (E-UTRAN Neighbour Cell List, E-UTRAN NCL)

The E-UTRAN NCL is used for measurement, report and reselection of an E-UTRAN neighbour cell and the list includes a frequency of the E-UTRAN neighbour cell, information about an E-UTRAN neighbour cell that is not allowed to be assessed, and a frequency index of the E-UTRAN neighbour cell. The E-UTRAN NCL is constructed by the SI2quater message or the Measurement Information message or the PSI3quater message, and may be modified by the PMO message or the PCCO message.

In a current measurement report, for the GERAN cell, a frequency index of the BA list and a BSIC value are used to identify one GERAN cell; for a UTRAN cell, a cell index in the 3G NCL is used to identify one UTRAN cell; and for the E-UTRAN NCL cell, the frequency index in the E-UTRAN NCL and physical cell identification (Physical Cell Identification, PCI) are used to identify one cell.

In the prior art, cell information included in the 3G Cell Reselection list is jointly provided by the SI2quater message and the SI2ter message. In the case that the PBCCH does not exist, the GPRS 3G Cell Reselection list is equal to the 3G Cell Reselection list, and in the case that the PBCCH exists, the GPRS 3G Cell Reselection list is provided by the PSI3quater message. Since the 3G Cell Reselection list/GPRS 3G Cell Reselection list is used only in autonomous cell reselection, and the GPRS 3G Cell Reselection list is merely used for a terminal to perform reselection in a network controlled cell reselection mode 0 (Network Controlled cell reselection Mode 0, NC0) and a network controlled cell reselection mode 1 (Network Controlled Mode 1, NC1), a frequency and a cell index are not defined during construction of the list, and during entering a connected mode, since no cell index exists in the GPRS 3G Cell Reselection list, a network side modifies only the 3G Neighbour list through the PMO message or the PCCO message, but does not modify the GPRS 3G Cell Reselection list.

A priority concept is brought into a current standard protocol, and the network side delivers priority information of each RAT in a manner of a 3G cell frequency index, that is, a priority of each frequency is delivered according to a frequency index of each frequency in the 3G. Since no frequency index is established in the 3G Cell Reselection list/GPRS 3G Cell Reselection list, priority information cannot be brought into the 3G Cell Reselection list/GPRS 3G Cell Reselection list. However, the 3G Cell Reselection list/GPRS 3G Cell Reselection list is a list used for cell reselection, and during the cell reselection, because no related priority information exists in the frequency included in the list, the terminal fails to perform the cell reselection that is based on the priority.

In another aspect, generally, the PMO or PCCO modifies only the 3G Neighbour Cell list, but does not modify the 3G Cell Reselection list/GPRS 3G Cell Reselection list. Since the 3G Neighbour Cell list is used for the measurement and report, and the 3G Cell Reselection list/GPRS 3G Cell Reselection list is used for the cell reselection, the network fails to change related information about the cell reselection of the terminal when a 3G frequency is added or deleted through the PMO or the PCCO.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS

The specific embodiments of the present invention are described in further detail in the following with reference to the accompanying drawings.

In the embodiments of the present invention, both a network side and a terminal need to establish a cell reselection list. In order to facilitate the description, the embodiments of the present invention all are described by taking a process of the terminal establishing a cell reselection list for an example. Persons skilled in the art may obtain a method for establishing a cell reselection list by a corresponding network side according to the description of the embodiments without creative effort. The cell reselection list may be a 3G Cell Reselection list and/or a GPRS 3G Cell Reselection list.

An embodiment of the present invention provides a method for establishing a cell reselection list, and as shown in FIG. 1, the method includes:

obtaining a system message, where the system message includes frequency information used in a 3G neighbour cell list, and optionally includes frequency information that is used in a cell reselection list but not used in the 3G neighbour cell list; and

establishing a cell reselection list and/or a frequency list according to the system message; establishing indexes in ascending order in the cell reselection list and/or the frequency list according to an appearance order from first to last of the frequency information used in the 3G neighbour cell list in the system message; and when the system message includes the frequency information used in the cell reselection list but not used in the 3G neighbour cell list, establishing indexes at the bottom of the cell reselection list and/or the frequency list according to an appearance order from first to last of the frequency information used in the cell reselection list but not used in the 3G neighbour cell list.

This embodiment may be used for newly establishing a cell reselection list and/or a frequency list. In this embodiment, the system message includes a first system message, and optionally includes a second system message. The first system message includes the frequency information used in the 3G neighbour cell list, and optionally includes the frequency information used in the cell reselection list but not used in the 3G neighbour cell list. The second system message includes the frequency information used in the cell reselection list but not used in the 3G neighbour cell list. The second system message is an optional message, and when the second system message does not exist, the first system message is the system message. When the second system message exists, and the first system message includes the frequency information used in the cell reselection list but not used in the 3G neighbour cell list, the second system message includes residual frequency information that is used in the cell reselection list but not used in the 3G neighbour cell list in the system message. When the second system message does not exist, and the first system message does not include the frequency information that is used in the cell reselection list but not used in the 3G neighbour cell list, the system message does not include the frequency information that is used in the cell reselection list but not used in the 3G neighbour cell list. Whether the first system message includes the frequency information that is used in the cell reselection list but not used in the 3G neighbour cell list and whether the second system message exists may be determined by a network condition and/or system configuration.

In this embodiment, a method for establishing the frequency list includes:

When the first system message is received, the terminal establishes frequency indexes in ascending order according to a delivery order of the first system message and an appearance order from first to last of frequency information of a 3G cell in the first system message. When the second system message is received, the terminal establishes frequency indexes in a descending manner or an ascending manner at the bottom of the cell reselection list and/or the frequency list according to a delivery order of the second system message and an appearance order from first to last of frequency information of a 3G cell in the second system message. In this embodiment, 32 frequencies may be set in a 3G frequency list, and therefore, sorting in descending order from the bottom of the list may be sorting in descending order from an index value 31, and if the sorting is performed in ascending order, the last index value is 31.

The first system message may be an SI2quater message, and the second system message may be an SI2ter.

A specific example of this embodiment is as follows.

The first system message includes 3G frequencies f1, f2, and f3, and the delivery order is f1, f2, and f3. The second system message includes 3G frequencies F1 and F2, and the delivery order is F1 and F2. A frequency index relation table formed in a newly established 3G frequency list is as shown in table 1a and table 1b. The table 1a indicates that indexes are established in descending order for the 3G frequencies F1 and F2 which are included in the second system message, and the table 1b indicates that the indexes are established in ascending order for the 3G frequencies F1 and F2 which are included in the second system message.

TABLE 1a Frequency list Index 0  f1 Index 1  f2 Index 2  f3 . . . . . . Index 30 F2 Index 31 F1

TABLE 1b Frequency list Index 0  f1 Index 1  f2 Index 2  f3 . . . . . . Index 30 F1 Index 31 F2

Index 0˜Index 31 in the tables are frequency index values.

In this embodiment, the network and the terminal establish the frequency indexes for the 3G frequencies, so that when the network side delivers an RAT and frequency priority information, the priority information may be delivered according to the frequency index in the 3G Cell Reselection list, thus implementing cell reselection that is based on the priority for the terminal.

In another embodiment of the present invention, frequency indexes are established in a cell reselection list. In this embodiment, a system message includes a first system message, and optionally includes a second system message. The first system message includes frequency information used in a 3G neighbour cell list, and optionally includes frequency information that is used in the cell reselection list but not used in the 3G neighbour cell list. The second system message includes the frequency information that is used in the cell reselection list but not used in the 3G neighbour cell list. The second system message is an optional message, and when the second system message, such as an SI2ter, does not exist, the first system message is the system message. When the second system message exists, and the first system message includes the frequency information that is used in the cell reselection list but not used in the 3G NCL, the second system message includes residual frequency information that is used in the cell reselection list but not used in the 3G neighbour cell list in the system message.

When a terminal receives the first system message, the terminal establishes frequency indexes in an ascending manner according to a delivery order of the first system message and an appearance order from first to last of frequency information of a 3G cell in the first system message. When the terminal receives the second system message, the terminal establishes frequency indexes at the bottom of the cell reselection list according to a delivery order of the second system message and an appearance order from first to last of frequency information of a 3G cell in the second system message. In this embodiment, the terminal also places frequencies that are used in a 3G Cell Reselection list but not used in the 3G Neighbour Cell list at the bottom of the cell reselection list to establish frequency indexes.

In this embodiment, after the terminal establishes the indexes for all the 3G cell frequencies in descending order in the second system message, the terminal may establish the indexes for the frequencies that are used in the 3G Cell Reselection list but not used in the 3G Neighbour Cell list in the first system message, and obtains subsequent values of the 3G cell frequency indexes in the second system message to perform sorting in descending order.

After the terminal establishes the indexes in descending order for the frequencies that are used in the 3G Cell Reselection list but not used in the 3G Neighbour Cell list in the received first system message, the terminal may obtain subsequent values to establish the indexes for the 3G cell frequencies of the second system message in descending order.

The terminal may also establish the indexes in ascending order for the frequencies in the second system message, and obtain subsequent values of the frequency indexes in the second system message to establish the indexes in ascending order for the frequencies that are used in the cell reselection list but not used in the 3G neighbour cell list in the first system message; or establish the indexes in ascending order for the frequencies that are used in the cell reselection list but not used in the 3G neighbour cell list in the first system message, and obtain subsequent values of the indexes to establish the indexes in ascending order for the frequencies of the second system message.

In this embodiment, at most 32 frequencies may be set for the 3G frequencies, and therefore, the sorting in descending order from the bottom of the list may be the sorting in descending order from the index value 31, and if the sorting is performed in ascending order, the last index value is 31.

The first system message may be an SI2quater message, and the second system message may be an SI2ter. The first system message further includes cell scrambling, and the same frequency may be corresponding to the same frequency index despite of the cell scrambling. Cell scrambling and a frequency may identify one unique cell together.

A specific example of this embodiment is as follows.

The SI2quater message includes 3G frequencies f1, f2, f3, and f4. Cell scrambling PSC11 and PSC12 exist in the frequency f1, cell scrambling PSC21, PSC22 and PSC23 exist in the frequency f2, the frequency f3 is instructed to be added into the 3G Cell Reselection list but not to be added into the 3G Neighbour Cell list, the frequency f4 has no scrambling, and a delivery order is f1, f2, f3 and f4. The SI2ter message includes 3G frequencies F1 and F2, and a delivery order is F1 and F2. A frequency index relation table that is formed in the 3G Cell Reselection list is as shown in table 2 or table 3, and Index 0˜Index 31 in the tables are frequency index values. When indexes are established in descending order from 31 for frequencies that are used in the 3G Cell Reselection list but not used in the 3G Neighbour Cell list and delivered by the SI2quater message, a frequency list is as shown in table 2. When indexes are established in descending order from 31 for the 3G frequencies that are delivered by the SI2ter message, the frequency list is as shown in table 3.

In this embodiment, the network and the terminal establish frequency indexes for the 3G Cell Reselection list, so that when the network side delivers an RAT and frequency priority information, the priority information may be delivered according to the frequency indexes in the 3G Cell Reselection list, thus implementing cell reselection that is based on the priority for the terminal.

In an embodiment of the present invention, frequency indexes and cell indexes are established in a cell reselection list. A system message further includes cell scrambling information, and when frequencies are the same, the cell indexes are established in an ascending manner according to an appearance order from first to last of cell scrambling.

In this embodiment, when a first system message is received, a terminal establishes the frequency indexes and the cell indexes in the ascending manner according to a delivery order of the system message and frequency information of a 3G cell, and also according to the appearance order from first to last of the cell scrambling. When the frequencies are the same, the cell indexes are established in the ascending manner according to the appearance order from first to last of the cell scrambling. A cell is determined by the frequency information and the cell scrambling information.

When the terminal receives a second system message, the terminal establishes the frequency indexes at the bottom of the cell reselection list according to a delivery order of the second system message and an appearance order from first to last of frequency information of a 3G cell in the second system message. In this embodiment, the terminal also places frequencies that are used in the 3G Cell Reselection list but not used in the 3G Neighbour Cell list at the bottom of the cell reselection list to establish frequency indexes.

In this embodiment, after the terminal establishes the indexes for all the 3G cell frequencies in descending order in the second system message, the terminal may establish the indexes for the frequencies that are used in the 3G Cell Reselection list but not used in the 3G Neighbour Cell list in the first system message, and obtains subsequent values of the 3G cell frequency indexes in the second system message to perform sorting in descending order.

After the terminal establishes the indexes in descending order for the frequencies that are used in the 3G Cell Reselection list but not used in the 3G Neighbour Cell list in the received first system message, the terminal may obtain subsequent values to establish the indexes for the 3G cell frequencies of the second system message in descending order.

The terminal may also establish the indexes in ascending order for the frequencies in the second system message, and obtain subsequent values of the frequency indexes in the second system message to establish the indexes in ascending order for the frequencies that are used in the cell reselection list but not used in the 3G neighbour cell list in the first system message; or establish the indexes in ascending order for the frequencies that are used in the cell reselection list but not used in the 3G neighbour cell list in the first system message, and obtain subsequent values of the indexes to establish the indexes in ascending order for the frequencies of the second system message.

In this embodiment, at most 32 frequencies may be set for the 3G frequencies, and therefore, the sorting in descending order from the bottom of the list may be the sorting in descending order from an index value 31, and if the sorting is performed in ascending order, the last index value is 31.

In this embodiment, the first system message may be an SI2quater message, and the second system message may be an SI2ter. In this embodiment, the first system message and the second system message may be collectively called a system message. The second system message is an optional message, and when the second system message, such as the SI2ter, does not exist, the first system message is the system message.

A specific example of this embodiment is as follows.

The SI2quater message includes 3G frequencies f1, f2, f3, and f4. Cell scrambling PSC11 and PSC12 exist in the frequency f1, cell scrambling PSC21, PSC22 and PSC23 exist in the frequency f2, the frequency f3 is instructed to be added into the 3G Cell Reselection list but not to be added into the 3G Neighbour Cell list, the frequency f4 has no scrambling, and a delivery order is f1, f2, f3 and f4. The SI2ter message includes 3G frequencies F1 and F2, and a delivery order is F1 and F2. A frequency and cell index relation table that is formed in the 3G Cell Reselection list is as shown in table 4 and table 5. F_Index 0˜F_Index 31 in the tables are frequency index values, and C_Index is a cell index value. When indexes are established in descending order from 31 for frequencies that are used in the 3G Cell Reselection list but not used in the 3G Neighbour Cell list and delivered by the SI2quater message, a frequency list is as shown in table 4. When indexes are established in descending order from 31 for the 3G frequencies that are delivered by the SI2ter message, the frequency list is as shown in table 5.

In this embodiment, a network and a terminal establish frequency indexes and cell indexes for the 3G Cell Reselection list, so that when a network side delivers an RAT and frequency priority information, the priority information may be delivered according to the frequency indexes in the frequency list, thus implementing cell reselection that is based on the priority for the terminal. Meanwhile, the frequency indexes and the cell indexes are established for the 3G Cell Reselection list, which may be fully corresponding to the 3G Neighbour Cell list, so that the two lists are modified at the same time through a PMO message and a PCCO message without changing current PMO and PCCO message structures.

Another embodiment of the present invention provides a method for establishing a cell reselection list. As shown in FIG. 2, this embodiment includes:

S21: A system message is obtained, and a 3G Neighbour Cell List is established according to the system message, where the system message optionally includes frequency information that is not included in the 3G Neighbour Cell List. In this embodiment, the system message includes a first system message, and optionally includes a second system message. A terminal may establish the 3G Neighbour Cell List according to the first system message. The first system message includes 3G neighbour cell frequencies and scrambling information, and the 3G neighbour cell frequencies may be distinguished as frequencies used in the 3G Neighbour Cell List and a 3G Cell Reselection list, and frequencies used in the 3G Cell Reselection list but not used in the 3G Neighbour Cell list, and are instructed through an identification. In this embodiment, the first system message may be an SI2quater message, and may also be any system message that provides 3G neighbour cell frequency information.

S22: A cell reselection list is established according to the 3G Neighbour Cell List when the system message does not include the frequency information that is not included in the 3G Neighbour Cell List; and the cell reselection list is established according to the 3G Neighbour Cell List and the system message when the system message includes the frequency information that is not included in the 3G Neighbour Cell List. In this embodiment, an established cell reselection list, such as the 3G Cell Reselection list, includes frequencies and cell information in the 3G Neighbour Cell List, frequency information that is used in the 3G Cell Reselection list but not used in the 3G

Neighbour Cell list, and included in the first system message, and 3G frequency information that is delivered by the second system message. The second system message includes frequency information used for cell reselection, and the second system message is generally used as supplementation of the first system message.

An index of a first frequency in the 3G Neighbour Cell List may be 0. The terminal establishes indexes in descending order or an ascending order at the bottom of the cell reselection list according to an appearance order from first to last of the frequencies that are not included in the 3G Neighbour Cell List but included in the system message. In this embodiment, indexes of frequencies that are used in the 3G Cell Reselection list but not used in the 3G Neighbour Cell list in the first system message may be set to be indexes beginning from the bottom of the list, for example, beginning from 31. As for frequencies in the second system message, subsequent values of the indexes of the frequencies that are used in the 3G Cell Reselection list but not used in the 3G Neighbour Cell list in the first system message are correspondingly obtained in descending order or an ascending order. Alternatively, the indexes of the frequencies in the second system message may also be set to be the indexes beginning from the bottom of the list. Specifically, the indexes are established in descending order for the frequencies in the second system message, subsequent values of the indexes of the frequencies in the second system message are obtained to establish indexes in descending order for the frequencies that are not included in the 3G Neighbour Cell list but included in the first system message; or indexes are established in descending order for the frequencies that are not included in the 3G Neighbour Cell list but included in the first system message, and subsequent values of the indexes are obtained to establish indexes in descending order for the frequencies of the second system message; or indexes are established in ascending order for the frequencies in the second system message, and subsequent values of the indexes of the frequencies in the second system message are obtained to establish indexes in ascending order for the frequencies that are not included in the 3G Neighbour Cell list but included in the first system message; or the indexes are established in ascending order for the frequencies that are not included in the 3G Neighbour Cell list but included in the first system message, and subsequent values of the indexes are obtained to establish the indexes in ascending order for the frequencies of the second system message.
